P is the parking gear, R is the reverse gear, N is the neutral gear, D is the drive gear, and S is the sport mode. P gear: Used when parking and turning off the engine; N gear: Used for short stops without turning off the engine; D gear: Used for driving forward; R gear: Used for reversing; S gear: Used for aggressive driving or overtaking. More detailed explanations are as follows: 1. Automatic transmission cars have the above-mentioned gears. There are three common types of automatic transmissions in cars: AT transmission, dual-clutch transmission, and CVT transmission. 2. The dual-clutch transmission is a product developed based on the manual transmission. The structure of this transmission is similar to that of a manual transmission. The dual-clutch transmission simply has an additional set of clutches and a shift control mechanism compared to a manual transmission. One set of clutches in this transmission controls the odd-numbered gears, while the other set controls the even-numbered gears. 3. The dual-clutch transmission has fast shifting speed and relatively high transmission efficiency. There are two types of dual-clutch transmissions: dry-type and wet-type. 4. The clutch plates of the dry-type dual-clutch transmission are not immersed in transmission oil, while those of the wet-type dual-clutch transmission are immersed in transmission oil. 5. The wet-type dual-clutch transmission has better reliability and stability, and this transmission can also withstand greater torque. However, the wet-type dual-clutch transmission has a more complex structure and higher cost.

What to Do When Car Wheels Get Scratched?

Here are solutions for scratched car wheels: 1. Use paint thinner to wipe around the scratch and remove dirt. For deeply scratched areas that are hard to clean, use a toothpick to thoroughly clean them. 2. Apply masking tape around the scratch, trim the brush tip, and apply touch-up paint. After the paint dries and slightly shrinks, it's best to apply it slightly raised. 3. Wait for complete drying, about a week, then use waterproof paper dipped in soapy water to smooth the surface. Use a compound to polish for shine, then apply wax. When the wheel hub is hot, let it cool naturally before cleaning. Never use cold water to clean, as it can damage the aluminum alloy wheel hub.

What is the difference between engine oil and transmission fluid?

Theoretically, engine oil and transmission fluid serve similar functions, primarily including lubrication, cleaning, rust prevention, and heat dissipation. The differences between engine oil and transmission fluid are: 1. Viscosity and temperature tolerance: Engine oil is used for the normal operation of the engine, with the highest temperature tolerance and the lowest viscosity, while transmission fluid is used for the transmission, with lower temperature tolerance and higher viscosity than engine oil. 2. Different functions: The main role of transmission fluid is to keep the car's gear system clean, providing lubrication and cooling for the gear system; engine oil is mainly used to lubricate the engine system, providing lubrication, cooling, sealing, rust and corrosion prevention, as well as shock absorption and buffering for the engine system.
